Mitchell couldn’t help but pinch it again.
Bai Qingqing felt pained, feeling as if her face had been clamped by a door.
She slapped off the misbehaving hand, putting on a fierce front, and saying, “I didn’t expect that the scorpion king would forcefully snatch someone like ordinary scorpion beastmen does. You should know that my mates’ capabilities aren’t below yours. Let go of me quickly and we can treat it as if nothing has happened.”
To be honest, Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief upon knowing that the one who had abducted her was the scorpion king. She was scared that it was some wild scorpion beast who’d want to have sex with her right off the bat.
Although the scorpion king was hard to deal with, as a king, he must also be someone smart. So, he wouldn’t fully rely on his instincts and act recklessly.
Seeming as if he had heard a great joke, Mitchell laughed arrogantly and said, “It’s true that your mates are strong, especially that snake beastman. He’s above four animal stripes, right?”
Bai Qingqing was taken by surprise. To think that he knew of levels above four animal stripes. This meant that there must be deeper paths beyond that.
“I might not be able to defeat them in the forest, but in the desert, I’m the winner!”
Mitchell didn’t mention the stronger existences, but this made Bai Qingqing felt even warier.
If Mitchell, as a four-striped beastman, was able to suppress Curtis in the desert, then Curtis’s chances of victory would be even lower if a scorpion beastman about the same level as him were to appear.
All sorts of thoughts ran through Bai Qingqing’s mind, and the expressions on her face couldn’t keep up with them. It made her look like she was stoned.
Mitchell felt as if his heart had been poked by something. If he was born in the modern world, he’d understand.
He was struck by Bai Qingqing’s adorableness.
He had captured her, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. His attitude couldn’t help but soften a little.
“Just quietly live by my side. Although the food resources in the desert aren’t as rich as those in the forests, you won’t have any shortage of food. I can send scorpion beastmen to go look for whatever you want to eat from the forests.”
Bai Qingqing sat on the cold stone bed, moving back a little until her back came into contact with the similarly cold stone walls. She then stopped and said, “You’re a rootless beast, so why do you want me?”
“Who said that rootless beasts can’t look for mates?” Mitchell pretended like he didn’t care, as if he was a misogamist in the modern world. “There’s no influence even if there isn’t a spousal mark. It’s sufficient as long as I like you. If we don’t have any feelings one day, we can go our separate ways amicably as well.”
Go their separate ways amicably.
Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes inside. An’an didn’t make a sound. However, she kept rubbing against Bai Qingqing’s embrace, making her feel a little awkward.
The matter of importance was to console An’an. Bai Qingqing patted her back and said, “It’s too dark here. Are you planning on keeping me blind?”
Mitchell immediately looked apologetic and said, “It’s an oversight on my part. I haven’t had a female before and have no idea that your vision is so bad. Hold on, I’ll go make preparations right away.”
After saying that, he turned to leave.
When Bai Qingqing heard his footstep sounds going away, she felt her way there too.
She felt a doorknob and was about to walk out when she suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing into her face. A sturdy thing that seemed to have nails growing on it hit her head.
Rustle—
The scorpion beastman on guard made warning sounds. However, he also overlooked the point that females had bad vision. He didn’t expect that the female didn’t see him and bumped into his pincer.
Bai Qingqing let out a cry in pain. Thankfully, she had walked slowly and the collision wasn’t too hard. However, the surface of the scorpion beastman’s pincer was filled with sharp and hard pricks. This bump left many small bloody holes on Bai Qingqing’s head.
